“Unless I am convicted of error by the testimony of Scripture or by manifest reasoning I stand convicted by the Scriptures to which I have appealed, and my conscience is
taken captive by God’s word. I cannot or will not recant anything. For to act against our conscience is neither safe for us, nor open to us.”

(Martin Luther)

"I cannot go beyond the word of the
Lord my God, to do less or more"

"In this time of well-nigh universal apostasy, God calls upon his messengers to proclaim his law in the spirit and power of Elias. As John the Baptist, in
preparing a people for Christ’s first advent, called their attention to the ten commandments, so we are to give, with no uncertain sound, the message: “Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour
of his judgment is come.” With the earnestness that characterized Elijah the prophet and John the Baptist, we are to strive to prepare the way for Christ’s second
advent" (SW March 21, 1905).
